10 New Year’s Resolutions There’s Absolutely No Point Making

3. Learn A New Language

Believe it or not, this is quite a popular resolution to make despite the majority of people in the English speaking world not really giving a toss either way about learning the lingo of another land. But it€™s a mightily impressive string to add to your bow. And if you persevere with and master a language, your general sexiness will automatically double overnight. However, unless you want to learn and teach in a different country, or are €“ most likely - on the run from the law, starting from scratch with an entire new language doesn€™t bear thinking about. The reason for this is because it involves loads of hard work. And no-one in their right mind wants to put extra effort into embarking on a linguistic hobby that they€™ll end up binning off when they mispronounce a foreign word and end up making it sound like an unspeakable part of the anatomy. Plus, all the best songs are lyrically English, and you probably still only possess a four year old€™s vocabulary anyway so it€™s best you focus your efforts on negotiating your native tongue. When You€™ll Abandon It: you won€™t even start it.
